The Arkansas Razorbacks suffered a heartbreaking loss to the Florida Gators last Saturday in the SEC Championship game in Atlanta, GA. The Gators jumped out to a 17-0 lead but then Arkansas scored 21 unanswered points to take a 4-point lead. Florida pulled ahead again and the Hogs weren't able to catch up.

Sophomore all-around backfield threat Darren McFadden, who broke Arkansas' single season rushing record this year, injured his right ankle early and was not playing at full capacity. As explosive as McFadden is, had he not been injured the game would have been a lot more interesting.

Arkansas has accepted an invitation to the Capitol One Citrus Bowl in Orlando, FL on January 1 against the Wisconsin Badgers.

Despite what happens, most of our players are returning next year. We'll be back. And bigger. And stronger. And faster. And better.
